YOU ARE HERE: TORRE DE BELÉM
TORRE DE BELÉM
The Tower of Belém was built in an effort to defend the estuary of the river Tagus. King Dom João II (1455-1495) had wanted to ban hostile ships from the river, but it was only his successor Dom Manuel I (1469-1521) who ended up building the tower. It was designed by architect and scupltor Francisco Arruda, with notable traces of Moorish influence. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
